Coral Reefs And White Death
FRENCH POLYNESIA - SOCIETY ARCHIPELAGO - MAY 09: A diver takes a cutting from a coral suffering from major bleaching on the coral reefs of the Society Islands on May 9, 2019 in Moorea, French Polynesia. Major bleaching is currently occurring on the coral reefs of the Society Islands in French Polynesia. The marine biologist teams of CRIOBE (Centre for Island Research and Environmental Observatory) are specialists in the study of coral ecosystems. They are currently working on “resilient corals”, The teams of PhD Laetitia Hédouin identify, mark and perform genetic analysis of corals, which are not impacted by thermal stress. They then produce coral cuttings which are grown in a “coral nursery” and compared to other colonies studying the resilience capacity of coral. (Video by Alexis Rosenfeld/Getty Images).
